The Parish Council is unable to hold face to face meetings in the village due to the present Government restrictions.
They can still hold remote meetings where no formal decisions are taken and will use this approach in respect of the above applications.
Details of the fact sharing session may be found below:
This year’s Open Gardens took place last Sunday, 4th July. Unfortunately, we were a victim of both the weekend forecast and the weather on the day itself, and were only able to welcome approx 140 visitors to the village, quite a decrease on 2019 figures.
However, we were at least able to hold the event and managed to raise £1,269.50 for National Gardens Scheme and £123.65 for the Parish Council towards the upkeep of the tubs in the village. The County Organiser from NGS came along and said that, despite the weather, those who did visit were impressed with the village and the gardens they saw.
So, thanks are due to everyone who contributed by opening their garden, helping with getting things ready, helping on the day, or attending the event. Thanks also to the Avon Dassett Fete Committee who allowed the use of a marquee, so at least our visitors kept dry as they enjoyed their tea and cake. And certainly not forgetting everyone who donated our lovely cakes, which, as always, received a lot of compliments!

Dan Simpson(https://www.dansimpsonpoet.co.uk/workshops) is an artist who has been engaged by Warwickshire Public Health to encourage young people to have the vaccine against COVID-19. He is offering FREE writing workshops for those aged 16-29 to take part in. Dan creates fun, accessible, and safe spaces for anyone to express themselves through poetry and spoken word – no experience is required!
The workshop will be via Teams on the 23rd of June at 12 o’ clock, for 30-60 minutes to create a crowdsourced poem from the age groups 16-29. It will be made up of words collected from this group, and specifically from those who are not vaccine-hesitant. The video output would be a ‘cut-up’ of people from this demographic performing lines to form the poem. Written versions of the poems will also be produced and turned into a series of social media posts and as one-page posters, to be shared and printed out.
If you would like to attend these empowering, reflective, and creative sessions, please contact communityengagementwcc@warwickshire.gov.uk and you will be sent a link for the workshop.
